THE  FALES’  COLLECTIONS. 


The  important  objects  described  in  this  catalogue,  embracing 
nearly  three  thousand  lots,  comprise  the  entire  art  collections 
and  literary  property  of  the  late  Samuel  Bradford  Fales,  Esq.,  of 
Philadelphia,  a  gentleman  well  known  for  his  devotion  and  liberal 
patronage  to  the  Fine  Arts.  Nothing  has  been  added  or  will  be 
introduced  during  the  sale  other  than  the  propeity  belonging  to 
the  estate. 

Never  to  our  knowledge  has  such  a  large,  varied  and  valuable 
collection  of  art  property  been  sold  by  auction  in  this  country. 
We  will  not  attempt  to  enumerate  the  objects,  or  to  criticise  the 
collections,  deeming  it  best  that  the  public  should  exercise  that 
right. 

In  compiling  the  catalogue  of  the  department  of  art,  we  have 
made  use  of  all  the  notes  of  the  late  owner  that  were  in  any  im¬ 
portant  manner  connected  with  the  objects.  The  descriptions  are 
as  full  as  circumstances  would  permit,  and  as  plain  and  simple  in 
manner  as  possible. 

The  engravings  and  books  have  been  catalogued  by  expeits, 
and  their  remarks  in  connection  therewith  will  no  doubt  be  read 
with  interest. 

All  of  the  paintings  and  water  colors  have  been  newly  framed, 
in  keeping  with  the  pictures  ;  nothing  but  the  best  framing  ma¬ 
terials  have  been  used. 

The  sale  is  made  by  order  of  the  executor,  and  is  a  peremptory 
one.  Each  and  every  article  will  be  sold  without  exception  or 

limit. 

The  catalogue,  of  which  a  limited  edition  has  been  printed, 
will,  in  this  instance,  be  charged  for  at  the  rate  of  fifty  cents 
per  copy. 

Parties  unable  to  attend  the  sale  can  have  orders  to  purchase 
faithfully  executed,  free  of  charge,  by  the  undersigned. 

JAMES  F.  SUTTON, 

THOS.  E.  KIRBY  &  CO. 


SAMUEL  BRADFORD  PALES 


was  born  in  Boston,  Mass.,  1808.  He  was  the  son  of  the  late 
Samuel  Bales,  a  successful  and  highly  esteemed  merchant  in  that 
city,  who  died  in  1848.  On  his  father’s  side  he  is  the  seventh  in  de- 
sc  nt  from  Wm.  Bradford  the  first  Governor  of  Massachusetts,  and 
he  was  a’so  descended  from  the  Kales’  family  who  arrived  in  Bos¬ 
ton  about  1636.  On  his  mother’s  side  he  traces  his  descent  from 
Dr.  Otis  of  Scituate,  cousin  of  James  Otis  of  revolutionary  fame, 
and  also  from  Walterus  de  Haliburton  of  Scotland,  who  lived  in 
1207.  Thomas  Halibu'ton,  author  of  Sam  Slick,  was  his  first 
cousin.  Mr.  S.  B.  Kales  was  educated  at  the  Boston  Latin  School, 
and  subsequently  entered  Harvard  University,  whence  he  gradu¬ 
ated  in  1825.  fie  afterwards  studied  medicine  for  two  years  with 
Dr.  John  Gorham  of  Boston  ;  but,  having  no  taste  for  the  profes¬ 
sion,  discontinued  his  readings,  and  in  1832  went  to  Philadelphia, 
where  he  entered  into  the  importing  and  commission  business, 
being  associated  with  Eliphalet  Williams,  under  the  firm  of  Kales 
and  Williams.  The  partnership  expired,  by  limitation,  in  1834,  and 
was  not  renewed  ;  indeed,  the  senior  partner  at  this  time  retired 
altogether  from  mercantile  pursuits.  He  next  turned  his  attention 
to  the  fine  arts,  and  studied  for  a  number  of  years,  but,  findin  :  his 
health  impaired,  desisted.  Nevertheless,  desirous  of  occupying  his 
mind  with  some  favorite  object,  he  commenced  by  making  a  col¬ 
lection  of  engravings,  then  paintings  in  oil  and  water  colors, 
bronzes,  and  articles  of  vertu.  flis  devotion  to  these  studies  was 
recognized  by  his  being  elected  a  director  of  the  Pennsylvania 
Academy  of  Kine  Arts,  which  he  held  during  the  presidency  of 
the  late  Hon.  Henry  D.  Gilpin.  It  was  while  holding  this  posi¬ 
tion  that  he  availed  himself  of  unusual  opportunities  of  procuring 
many  fine  examples  in  oil  and  water  color  paintings,  the  works 
of  celebrated  artists  of  Europe,  then  exhibiting  at  the  academy. 

On  the  breaking  out  of  the  rebellion,  he  ranged  himself  on  the 
side  of  the  government,  and,  by  his  unselfish  devotion  to  the  interest 
of  the  soldiers,  won  for  himself  a  proud  and  enviable  record.  Kor

THE  FATES  COLLECTIONS. 


five  years  his  entire  time,  day  and  night,  was  devoted  to  the  welfare 
and  success  of  the  Union  Volunteer  Refreshment  Saloon  and  its 
adjuncts.  He  was  treasurer  of  its  funds,  which  were  raised  by  the 
voluntary  contributions  of  private  citizens — neither  city,  State,  nor 
United  States’  patronage  being  given  to  it.  By  his  own  per¬ 
sonal  exertions  the  greater  part  of  the  funds  were  collected  ;  and, 
when  all  is  taken  into  consideration,  the  enormous  operations 
of  this  saloon,  with  its  three  hospitals,  its  bathing  facilities  and 
other  accommodations  afforded  the  sick  and  weary  soldiers,  the 
funds  necessary  to  carry  on  the  enterprise  could  not  have  been 
meagre.  As  many  as  seven  thousand  men  have  been  fed  on  its 
premises  within  twenty-four  hours,  and  scarcely  a  day  elapsed 
during  the  long  period  of  the  four  years  of  the  war,  and  the  year 
subsequent  when  the  troops  were  mustered  out  and  were  returning 
from  the  field,  that  the  beneficent  aid  of  this  noble  monument  of 
the  patriotism  and  philanthropy  of  Philadelphia  was  not  called  into 
play.  Sick  or  well,  white  or  black,  Union  soldier  or  Confederate 
prisoner,  all  were  relieved  ;  and  of  the  sufferers  who  closed  their 
eyes  in  death  within  the  hospitals,  their  remains  were  carefully  and 
sorrowfully  laid  away  to  rest  in  the  lot  provided  by  the  managers 
for  that  purpose.  Through  all  these  years  Samuel  B.  Tales  worked 
unweariedly  as  Corresponding  Secretary  and  General  Financial 
Agent.  In  October,  1865,  his  associates  of  the  Union  Volunteer 
Refreshment  Saloon  passed  a  series  of  resolutions,  beautifully  en¬ 
grossed,  and  presented  to  him,  testifying  to  the  prominent  part  he 
took  in  the  great  work.  He  was,  likewise,  the  recipient  of  many  com¬ 
plimentary  letters,  especially  from  his  college  classmates,  who  bear 
witness  to  the  fact,  that  in  all  his  unselfish  devotions  to  the  sol¬ 
dier’s  comfort  he  has  reflected  the  teachings  and  honored  the  es¬ 
cutcheon  of  his  Alma  Mater.  He  was  one  of  the  very  few  civil¬ 
ians  who  have  been  honored  with  a  membership  of  the  Military 
Order  of  the  Loyal  Legion  of  the  United  States,  and  was  a  mem¬ 
ber  of  the  council  of  that  commandery.  During  the  time  of  the 
Centennial  Exhibition,  no  one  took  more  interest  in  the  further¬ 
ance  of  this  great  and  successful  undertaking  than  he.  He  visited 
the  building  daily,  and  many  are  the  objects  of  art  and  industry 
purchased  by  him  from  the  different  departments.  He  was  a  true 
lover  and  patron  of  the  fine  arts;  he  purchased  objects,  not  because 
they  were  antique,  nor  for  their  historical  value  ;  if  it  was  beau¬ 
tiful  and  artistic,  and  suited  his  taste,  he  purchased  it,  no  matter.

SAMUEL  BRADFORD  FAZES. 


when  or  where  it  was  made,  or  who  was  the  artist  ;  and  when  once 
purchased  and  placed  with  his  collection,  it  was  never  parted 
with.  Consequently  he  gathered  together  a  large  and  most  valu¬ 
able  museum  of  artistic  and  literary  property  which  has  for  years 
been  a  source  of  pleasure  and  gratification  not  only  to  its  pos¬ 
sessor,  but  also  to  his  friends  and  die  public.  Up  to  the  time  of 
his  death,  which  occurred  on  the  morning  of  Sept.  14,  1S80, 
after  a  short  illness,  Mr.  Fales  was  engaged  in  adding  to  his  col¬ 
lections,  and  had  about  completed  an  extraordinary  collection 
of  cut  and  engraved  glassware.  He  lived  and  died  surrounded  by 
his  beautiful  and  rare  possessions  ;  and  the  fact  that  they  are  now 
to  be  dispersed  will  cause  a  feeling  of  deep  regret  to  his  many 
lriends,  and  the  thousands  who  have  had  the  pleasure  of  seeing 
his  Art  Treasures.

(. Extract  from  a  letter  of  the  Artist  to  the  late  Mr.  Fates.) 

“  I  have  packed  and  sent  your  picture  to-day.  I  hope  it  will  be  in  time 
for  the  packet  that  sails  on  the  12th  of  the  month.  I  hope  it  will  reach  you 
safe,  and  it  will  give  me  pleasure  to  hear  that  I  have  succeeded  in  giving  you 
satisfaction.  I  assure  you  I  have  had  great  pleasure  in  using  every  endeavor 
to  do  so,  and  1  hope  from  the  opinions  expressed  by  my  friends,  that  it  is 
one  of  the  best  pictures  I  have  painted.  A  picture  should  not  require  an 
explanation  but  tells  its  own  story  ;  but  I  may  just  say  that  I  intend  it  for 
luncheon-time  somewhere  near  mid-day — the  day  ‘  First  of  October/  the 
first  day  of  pheasant  shooting — the  woods  just  turning  into  varied  color  from 
the  deep,  rich  green  to  the  rich  autumnal  tints  ;  the  large  old  oak-tree  marks 
the  trysting-place,  and  the  sportsman  and  keepers  assemble  there  to  the 
noonday-meal  which  the  boy  is  bringing  down  the  hill  on  the  left.”

WEBER  (Paul) . Philadelphia 

View  in  the  Tyrol.  A  Sunset  on  Mount  Gall. 

Dated  1852.  Canvas  4S  x  36 

A  faithful  representation  and  considered  by  the  artist  a  masterpiece.  In 
this  region  the  mountains  have  a  peculiar  shape,  and  from  every  point  of 
view  the  scenery  unfolds  itself  in  new  and  varied  forms.  The  Gall  is  from 
almost  every  side  difficult  of  ascent,  and  from  many  very  dangerous.  The 
little  Gall  is  5538  feet  in  height,  and  the  great  7968. 

This  summit,  compared  with  its  broad-backed  neighbors,  appears  like  a 
beautiful  arched  cupola,  resting  on  a  fourfold  stone,  for  even  so  many  mas¬ 
sive,  white-gray  cold  rock  ridges  run  out  almost  symmetrically  from  the 
Gall.  This  peculiar  form  makes  the  Gall  the  most  splendid  point  of  the 
Salzburg  mountain  panorama.

WEBER  (Paul) . Philadelphia 

Chiem  See  in  the  Tyrol  near  Salzberg. 

Dated  1852.  Canvas  4b  x  30 

The  village  seen  in  this  Painting  is  called  Priem,  and  was  built  on  the  site 
and  ruins  of  the  castle  of  Chiem-gan,  and  is  still  extant. 

In  the  central  part  of  the  gan  lies,  in  a  deep  basin,  a  long-stretched  sea  (or 
lake).  Woody  heights  surround  its  shores  ;  the  bases  of  Alp-horns  also  are 
so  near,  and  their  summits  rise  so  high  in  the  clouds,  that  the  whole  moun¬ 
tains  are  mirrored  in  the  waters  of  the  lake. 

Around  the  lake  lie  some  small  villages,  and  the  site  of  one  of  them  was 
formerly  the  seat  of  the  old  Count  of  Chiem-gan  ;  but  the  principal  ornaments 
of  the  lake  are  two  not  inconsiderable  islands,  which  extend  in  a  direction 
from  east  to  west,  near  the  middle  of  the  lake,  but  nearest  its  northern  side.  The 
greater  isle  is  called  “  Herrenworth,”  and  sometimes  “  Herren  Chiem-See  ;  ” 
the  smaller  one  “  Nonnenworth.”  (These  names  may  be  Anglicized  “  Lords- 
worth”  and  “  Ladiesworth,”  and  had  their  origin  in  the  facts  recorded,  that 
on  the  one  stood  in  olden  time  a  renowned  Abbey,  and  on  the  other  a  Mon¬ 
astery,  both  founded  in  the  eighth  century.)  On  the  mainland  opposite  Non¬ 
nenworth  dwelt  the  noble  and  beautiful  lady  Adelheid.  Every  morning, 
when  the  Abbey  bell  struck,  Adelheid  crossed  the  lake  in  a  ferryboat  to  per¬ 
form  her  devotions.  The  old  ferryman  fell  sick  and  his  son  Mienfried  took 
his  place,  and  fell  deeply  in  love  with  the  beautiful  lady.  He  pined  away  in 
his  hopeless  love.  The  lady  Adelheid  joined  the  nunnery  and  took  the 
veil,  and  when  he  had  ferried  her  over  for  that  purpose,  he  sailed  away  upon 
the  lake  and  was  never  more  seen  ;  but,  as  the  legend  says,  still  in  calm 
nights  may  be  heard  on  the  shores  of  the  lake  the  plaintive,  longing  notes  of 
the  song  which  Mienfried  used  to  sing  there.

Scenery  surrounds  the  group,  showing  a  Roman  Park  with  monuments  and

Dated  1852. 


Canvas  41^  x  31 


(. Extract  from  the  Artist's  letter  to  the  late  owner) 

“  Hieronimus  Jobs  is  the  hero  of  a  German  humorous  and  satirical  poem. 
His  parents  (small  town  people),  had  great  ideas  with  respect  to  young  H.’s 
abilities,  and  sent  him  to  a  German  university  in  order  to  study  theology. 
Jobs  was  idle  and  dissipated  and  learned  very  little.  Ilis  examination, 
when  candidate  fora  parsonship,  turned  out  in  his  disgrace,  and  his  father 
grieved  him-elf  to  death.  Jobs  instead  of  becoming  a  reverend  gentleman 
was  made  schoolmaster  in  the  village  of  ‘  Nosense,’  from  which  situation, 
however,  he  was  driven  by  the  villagers  who  were  enraged  at  his  having  at¬ 
tempted  to  introduce  new  ideas  and  tendencies  into  the  school.  Jobs  then 
turned  night  watchman  in  the  small  town  of  Shielv  Borough.  In  this  capac¬ 
ity  he  is  spoken  of  as  follows  in  the  poem  : 


‘And  when  Hieronimus  blew  his  horn  and  sang  his  song, 

The  good  people  all  awoke,  tho’  ever  so  fast  asleep, 

And  all  over  the  town  was  heard  the  bray  of  brass  and  voice.’ 


“  The  picture  of  the  watchman  Jobs  is  painted  as  he  crosses  the  bridge  bel¬ 
lowing  with  all  his  might  the  well  known  watchman’s  song,  commencing 
thus  ‘Hear  me  ye  folks’  etc.,  the  town,  the  peace  and  safety  of  which  is 
confided  to  him,  lying  at  his  feet.  Everybody  and  everything  are  at  rest, 
save  a"  few  cats,  who  still  hold  mewing  converse  on  the  roof.  It  is  the  be. 
ginning  of  March — the  moon  is  just  rising  above  the  town  (in  the  sign  of  the 
lion). 

“  The  three  chief  incidents  of  the  Jobsiade,  as  mentioned  alcove,  were 
painted  in  equal  size.  The  picture  of  the  ‘  Examination  ’  is  still  in  my  pos¬ 
session,  those  of  the  ‘Schoolmaster’  and  the  ‘  Watchman  Jobs  ’  are  in  New 
York  Crystal  Palace.  They  were  painted  by  myself  and  are  consequently 
originals.

Canvas  39  x  52^ 


Dated  1855. 


The  above  is  an  ideal  picture,  does  not  represent  any  particular 
cloister.  The  artist  commenced  the  painting  on  the  istday  of  Jan¬ 
uary  and  completed  it  on  the  12th  day  of  February,  the  succeeding 
year.  Thirteen  months  of  careful  and  patient  work.

No.  142.  A  Ruined  Cloister  on  a  Winter’s  Evening. 

*  Hassenpflug  Artist. 

“  If  a  general  vote  were  taken  with  regard  to  the  comparative  merits  of  the 
pictures  exhibited  in  the  Academy,  we  believe  that  the  verdict  would  place 
this  picture  first  by  a  very  large  majority.  We  have  taken  a  reportorial  liberty 
and  practiced  a  little  eaves-dropping,  for  the  purpose  of  learning  the  popular 
opinion  with  regard  to  it,  and  we  are  therefore  able  to  some  extent  to  say 
what  the  visitors  think  of  it.  It  has  been  the  subject  of  much  criticism, 
both  in  the  newspapers  and  from  visitors  generally. 

“  We  may  state  our  unhesitating  conviction  to  be,  that  it  has  no  equal  as  a 
representation  of  monastic  and  mediaeval  architecture  in  this  country ,so  far  as 
we  have  had  an  opportunity  of  observing.  It  is  not  a  ruined  cloister,  it  is  a 
single  arch  of  a  ruined  cloister,  and  yet,  in  that  little  space,  the  artist  has 
crowded  incidents  which  will  occupy  hours  in  study.  Into  every  nook  and 
cranny  Boreas  has  drifted  the  falling  snow,  and  the  desolated  shrines  and 
sacred  images  are  palled  in  the  wintry  vestment.  The  deserted  altars  and 
the  worn  steps  bear  the  mind  away  to  the  times  when  devout  worshipers 
knelt  there  in  adoration,  and  the  pealing  diapasons  of  the  organ  swept  its 
vaulted  chambers.  The  chief  charm  of  the  picture  is  its  suggestiveness,  as

the  tourist  stands  amid  the  broken  arches  and  colonnades  of  Grecian  temples 
or  Roman  baths,  his  mind  wanders  back  over  the  pathway  of  time,  to  the 
period  when  the  daily  bustle  and  din  of  traffic  or  pleasure  rolled  along, 
where  now  everything  betokens  solitude  and  desolation.  So  in  the  present 
case,  the  spectator  cannot  gaze  upon  the  fretted  roof  from  which  the  plaster 
is  slowly  crumbling,  without  picturing  to  himself  a  time  when  the  cowled 
monk  told  his  beads  at  the  tumbling  altars  and  the  solemn  procession  of  holy 
recluses  wound  through  these  corridors.  It  whispers  audibly  of  the  past — 
now  telling  of  some  painful  penance  for  the  mortification  of  the  flesh — now 
of  some  charitable  deed  by  which  sorrow  was  alleviated.  To  the  Catholic  it 
seems  to  bring  back  the  days  when  the  sacred  relics  attracted  throngs  to  the 
convents  which  enshrined  them.  To  the  Protestant  it  has  its  story  of  cere¬ 
monials  performed  at  day-dawn  and  its  evening  vigil,  and  to  some  suspi¬ 
cions  of  inquisitorial  practices  perpetrated  in  underground  dungeons,  never 
visited  by  light  of  day.  To  every  spectator  it  suggests  some  peculiar 
fancy  colored  or  real  according  to  the  bent  of  mind. 

“  We  regard  the  1  Cloister  ’  as  the  gem  picture  of  the  year’s  exhibition.  We 
are  not  one  of  those  who  can  fall  into  ecstacies  over  a  broken-backed  madonna, 
simply  because  it  is  a  specimen  of  what  in  the  cant  of  the  day  is  called  high 
art.  As  we  believe  that  nature — the  handiwork  of  the  Almighty — is  beyond 
human  improvement,  it  necessarily  follows  that  the  highest  style  of  art  con¬ 
sists  in  the  closest  approximation  to  that  model.  We  think  that  such  build¬ 
ings  as  this  are  not  only  possible,  but  actually  exist,  and  we  therefore  regard 
its  fabricator  as  an  artist  of  the  very  highest  style.  It  is  a  theory,  we  are 
aware,  which  meets  with  little  favor  in  this  country,  but  it  is  one  which 
strikes  us  as  very  sensible,  and  for  that  reason,  a  very  proper  one  to  hold.”

deceased .) 

“  The  oil  sketch  by  Couture  in  your  collection  is  the  color  study  for  a 
group  (Les  Naufrages),  painted  by  him  in  the  Church  of  St.  Eustache  in  Paris. 
There  are  three  pictures  allegorical  subjects,  or  perhaps  more  properly,  one 
subject  in  three  divisions.  The  work  of  painting  them  extended  over  a  con¬ 
siderable  space  of  time,  but  the  portion  of  which  yoursketch  formed  one  of  the 
color  studies,  was  painted  in  the  year  1852,  at  which  time  I  was  his  pupil, 
and  watched  with  great  interest  the  progress  of  the  work. 

“  I  congratulate  you  upon  the  possession  of  so  favorable  and  characteristic 
a  specimen  of  the  work  of  one  whom  I  consider  to  combine  more  of  the  ele¬ 
ments  of  genius  than  almost  any  living  painter.”

The  above  water  color  by  Turner  was  brought  to  this  country  by  Joshua 
Shaw,  a  well-known  English  artist.  It  was  painted  in  1835-40,  and  was  pro¬ 
cured  by  Mr.  Shaw  direct  from  Turner. 

Daniel  Robinson,  Esq.,  deceased,  of  Philadelphia,  purchased  it  from  Mr. 
Shaw,  and  May  28,  1856,  the  late  Samuel  B.  Fales  purchased  it.  At  the 
sale  of  Mr.  Robinson’s  private  collection  of  paintings,  etc.,  the  following 
note  was  appended  to  description  of  the  picture  in  catalogue  of  the  sale  : 

“This  matchless  and  indescribable  water  color  gem  of  the  great  Turner 
(known  as  the  ‘  English  Claude  ’),  executed  by  him  in  his  prime,  was 
brought  to  this  country  by  the  late  Joshua  Shaw,  who  had  it  from  Mr.  Tur¬ 
ner.  The  present  owner  purchased  it  immediately  upon  his  arrival  here,  in 
the  year  1S43.  It  is  as  perfect  in  every  tint  as  the  day  it  was  executed  ;  an 
extraordinary  characteristic  of  the  drawings  of  Turner,  and  one  which  causes 
them  to  be  more  highly  prized  abroad  at  the  present  day  than  his  oil  pic¬ 
tures,  many  of  which,  it  is  a  well-known  fact,  have  faded  materially,  and 
lost  much  of  their  original  brilliancy  and  effect.”

Extract  from  note  of  the  late  owner. 

These  three  Vases  were  brought  to  this  country  by  the  artist 
for  the  purpose  of  exhibition  at  the  Centennial  Exhibition.  Not 
having  applied  previously  for  space,  he  was  prevented  from 
placing  them  on  exhibition.  Sadly  disappointed,  he  came  to  me, 
showed  the  Vases,  and  offered  them  for  sale.  Recognizing  their 
value  as  choice  specimens,  I  at  once  purchased  them. 

The  artist  was  engaged  over  one  year  in  cutting  the  above  vases.

FINE  ART 

AND 

ILLUSTRATED  BOOKS. 


Of  the  five  hundred  items  described  in  the  following  pages,  at 
least  two-thirds  are  the  choicest  editions,  — clean,  and  often 
uncut.  The  Ruskin’s  “  Modern  Painters  ”  is  peculiarly  an  illustra¬ 
tion  of  this  fact.  The  volumes  which  it  is  desirable  to  have  in 
their  first  state  on  account  of  the  plates  (vols.  3,  4  and  5),  are  first 
editions  ;  the  two  first  volumes  which  were  never  illustrated,  are 
chosen  from  the  edition  which  exhibits  the  best  typography. 
This  work  is  supplemented  by  the  writings  of  Burnet,  Kugler, 
Bryan,  Pilkington,  etc.,  the  Catalogue  Raisonne  of  Smith,  and 
the  rare  work  on  American  Arts  of  Design  by  Dunlap. 

Nearly  every  book  in  the  collection  has  been  chosen  for  the 
beauty  of  its  illustrations.  The  best  views  of  American  and 
European  scenery,  including  the  fine  works  illustrated  by  Prout, 
Harding,  Roberts,  Bartlett,  etc.,  etc.,  and  the  best  poeis  illustrated 
by  Meadows,  Bartolozzi,  Tenniel,  Gilbert,  S.othard,  Westall, 
Maclise,  Faed,  and  others. 

The  lovers  of  Antique  Gems  will  find  the  choicest  of  European 
collections,  including  the  Orleans  and  Smith  cabinets  ;  and  the 
disciple  of  Izaak  Walton  will  not  only  find  the  choice  Pickering 
edition  of  the  Complete  Angler  (1836),  but  a  good  selection  of 
minor  works  on  the  same  subject. 

Among  the  larger  books  of  engravings  may  be  mentioned  the 
superb  plates  after  Vander  Meulen,and  the  Musee  Royal,  Orleans,

PREFACE.

Duchess  de  Berry,  Farnese  and  Florence  galleries,  also  a  superb 
edition  of  Ovid,  with  exquisite  plates.  The  exceedingly  rare 
Vecellio’s  costumes  is  so  seldom  met  with  in  earlier  editions  that 
the  specimen  here  included  should  be  well  appreciated. 

Every  book  has  been  described  without  unnecessary  elaboration, 
and  they  will  be  on  exhibition  in  time  to  afford  collectors  an  op¬ 
portunity  of  verifying  the  descriptions.  Non-residents  of  this 
city  may  have  any  additional  particulars  on  application  to  the 
auctioneers.

William  Pickering,  London,  1836 

This  is,  without  doubt,  the  most  beautifully  illustrated  edition 
of  “Honest  Izaak’s”  charming  Pastoral  ever  published.  To 
the  publisher,  Mr.  Pickering,  its  production  was  literally  a 
labor  of  love.  Neither  time  nor  expense  were  spared  to 
render  it  worthy  of  the  arts  and  the  importance  of  the  subject ; 
and  the  result  was  a  union  of  literary  and  artistic  talent 
which  has  rarely  been  equaled  and  never  surpassed. 

“A  work  the  most  singular  in  its  kind,  breath'ng  the  very 
spirit  of  contentment,  of  quiet  and  unaffected  philanthropy, 
and  interspersed  with  some  fine  relics  of  old  poetry,  songs 
and  ballads.” — Bowles.

“  For  the  artist,  the  critic,  and  the  lover  of  Art,  the  narrative  of 
the  struggles  of  Haydon,  even  though  it  ends  with  his  utter 
failure,  has  "hardly  a  rival — certainly  nothing  in  English  can  be 
compared  with  it  ;  and  this  not  merely  because  English  Art  Bi¬ 
ographies  are  usually  flabby  to  a  degree,  but  on  account  of  the  in¬ 
trinsic  qualities  of  the  ‘  Autobiography,’  which  is  one  of  the  most 
vivid  of  books,  and  only  to  be  matched  in  vitality  by  Cellini’s 
audacious  narrative,  while  it  is  far  more,  pathetic,  because  the 
hero,  a  sort  of  Ajax  in  his  way,  died  under  shield.” — Athenaum.
